Incapacitated Scripted EH?

[Creic 0]

Hi folks, 

 

From patch 1.46's changelog: "Added: Scripted event handlers for entering and exiting the incapacitated state" (https://dev.arma3.com/post/spotrep-00043#:~:text=Added%3A Scripted event handlers for entering and exiting the incapacitated state)

List of Scripted EH's on Wiki: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Scripted_Event_Handlers

 

I've noticed the incapacitated state scripted EH doesn't appear in that list. I can't find a reference to it being removed in a later patch, so I'm guessing it is undocumented. I've hunted high and low through the function viewer to no avail, and even had help from the Discord which had the same result.

 

Anybody know what the event name and event params for it would be?

 

Cheers.

Either I'm doing something wrong, or the event name is no longer 'reviveIncapacitated' as the following does not fire when incapacitated:

[ missionNamespace, "reviveIncapacitated", {
    systemChat "Test: Incap";
} ] call BIS_fnc_addScriptedEventHandler;

Have also tried 'reviveRevived' to no avail. Tried the code from @Larrow posted here:

I'm starting to weigh on the side of they've been renamed or removed?

They were removed when the whole revive system was rewritten, A3 1.62 2016 I believe.

Damn, that's such a shame. Thanks though!

I personally use lifeState isEqualTo "INCAPACITATED" (All string values it returns are in caps), could try to detect when someone enters that state via a damage eventHandler maybe. I wrote my own incapacitation script/system but manually sets the incapacitated to true on player. There's a lot of variables with the vanilla incapacitation/revive system to keep track of so just be aware of that.

^^this.

See \a3\functions_f_mp_mark\revive\defines.inc which you can include into your own scripts to access revive macros/state enumerations.

These are likely the most useful from that file.
